Now, not every American Citizen has access to an amateur radio
operator. I'd say most don't know even one amateur, and many don't
know what ham radio is (Isn't that like CB?)
Mama Dee claims there are some Americans who don't even
know what a "CB" is!
You say that EVERY American citizens DOES know what "CB" is, SCummy One?
TAFKARJ claims that "CB" originated in 1946...except that
"11 meters" is not at 465 MHz.
"CB" does not solely refer to operations at 11 meters, Lennie.
Why do you leave out other forms of cummunications???
Brian, the gunnery nurse doesn't KNOW of any other form of
communications...
He is a Believer. If he reads some political screed about
"emergency service" he thinks that ALL hams do that and
ALL got into amateur radio to be "emergency communicators."
Yet another lie, but Leonard H Anderson is capable of nothing more.
When your ham radio is broke, how do you communicate with it?
He THROWS it? :-)
His radios NEVER break. They always work. He can march
50 miles with a Yaecomwood on his back if he has on a
uniform.
I just fix them, Lennie.
You're not the only person here who can use a spectrum analyzer, VTVM, or
a signal gererator.
I challenge you to prove THAT otherwise, also.
Challenges, challenges, challenges! That's a part of your problem,
Don Quixoterobeson. Always making challenges.
So far, Putz, you've not been up to ANY challenge. (no cajones)
Is that a threat?
The gunnery nurse would like you to THINK that.
He may also think Kim and Dee have "cojones."
They have more than you or PuppetBoy, Lennie...
Am I wrong?
Only the gunnery nurse and any other PCTA is "right" in this
newsgroup. Everyone else is "wrong."
People are only "wrong" when the information they supply is in error.
So far, PuppetBoy has not provided any "evidence" to support his
allegations.
YOU have already been caught blatantly lying and making accusations you
cannot/will not validate.
Did your exercise scenario shut down the cell system?
"Cell sites ALWAYS fail in an emergency..."
"Train For The Worst, Hope For The Best"..or my personal reference,
"Paratus et Vigilans".
Sounds like more challenges. You really want to get into it, don't
you?
He has more testosterone than smarts...which is not a great deal...
So far I have more facts than you or Brain.
Nope. Lots of people used their cell phones. One even used his phone
to call home and leave a goodbye message to his wife on their
answereing machine.
He didn't use amateur radio or CW.
That can't be true...the ARRL never put THAT in their web page as
"official."
The New York Times did, however...the message was left before the Towers
toppled.
Also, the messages left from the third hijacked plane were left before the
passengers tried to re-take the plane.
To the best of my knowlewdge, none of the cellphone on that flight worked
after the plane crashed.
Is that the picture you paint?
With a paint-by-number kit...
That's the ONLY picture you can paint accurately, Lennie...But I am
willing to bet even then you substitute the colors at will there, too...
Hey, Brian, yon gunnery nurse are gonna play Let's Pretend with
a "simulated" earthquake. They will shake in their boots to make
like the earth moved for them. Maybe they will have a "hostile
action" too and award pretty decorations for all of that. High fives
all around (simulated, of course).
I still challenge you, Sir Scummy of Anderson, to refute that any
emergency response agencies in SoCal (or anywhere in the Schwartzennegger
Empire) do NOT "train" (ie: SIMULATE) disaster scenarios.
I can't wait for the documentary movie of the event to be shown on
the History Channel.
I can't wait for you to show me how OES prepares for emergencies without
training thier personnel.
